Spaghetti Affinity

Chicken nuggets, Mac 'n Cheese. Sure he likes these foods.

But few realize his spaghetti affinity. Gamble eats spaghetti frequently, and he loves it.

Trouble is, spaghetti is messy. Very messy.

So he eats it... naked.

And rightly so. Almost every time he has spaghetti, he gets it on his chest, in his lap, on his cheeks, sometimes on the back of his arms, everywhere.

And then the other day a friend was watching him. She told Nicole that she'd be serving spaghetti, and of course Nic warned her that he might need to take of his shirt.

When she put the plate on the table, Gamble went to the corner of the room and started matter-of-factly taking off his pants. Thank goodness he warned her. When I picked him up, he was topless, and the spaghetti sauce around the mouth made him look like a clown!

Swear. No other food gets him this messy, and he's not slurping.

Oh, and for completeness, he's not that big a fan of other pasta. He eats it, but he's a spaghetti fiend.
